This is a blog about me, Ally, 44 now...trying to conceive baby #3. After 5 years, several miscarriages and heartaches we finally did it. Ava Lynn was born on January 30th 2009. Now I have two teenagers and a baby! Ally wants three is now complete.
It's all gravy from here on in...

New Photos - 5 weeks

Smiling pretty "Mom, stop it!" Just hangin' out

What's new??... I joined a gym with Dave and the kids to get back in shape. I have about 20 lbs to get back to my pre pregnancy weight. I am already back to my "No-white" diet so the lbs have been coming off. My 6 week post partum appt is next Friday and hopefully my uterus has gone back to normal. My OB suggested I should get on birth control so I'm considering the Nuva-Ring. We'll see when I get there.

Ava had her newborn screenings at the pediatrician and one of the tests came back slightly elevated. They reran it and it was fine...a false positive. It's always nice to worry a parent for no reason. Sheesh.

Anyway, I hope you like the pics. Ava is changing (Dave doesn't think so) and I think she is looking like him. So far her eyes are still blue grey. It'll be a couple of months until we know if they will be greenish blue like Dave's or brown like mine.

That's it. I'm going to take a nap (Ava is asleep) because I need to catch up. She is waking up every 3 hours and it's wearing me out. LOL

She is changing! She is so cute! I can't believe you are already going to a gym. At five weeks my incision was still open and the only place I was going was the hospital every other day to see a specialist.

I was browsing blogs on Stirrup Queens and came across yours... I just delivered my 3rd baby on January 30th as well. Your little girl is gorgeous!! I hope you are getting more sleep than I am. I hope your appt goes smoothly tomorrow... I have mine tomorrow as well.
